[issue18621] site.py keeps too much stuff alive when it patches builtins

2013-08-01 Thread Antoine Pitrou 

New submission from Antoine Pitrou:

The site module patches the builtins module unless Python is run with -S. 
Unfortunately, this means the builtins dict then keeps the site module globals 
alive until the end of interpreter shutdown, preventing the garbage collection 
of many other objects or modules.

Attached patch isolates those patched builtins inside a separate module 
_sitebuiltins.
